In addition to the above, I find it disrespectful and insulting on the sensibilities of the Ijaws(Okrikans) and the Ikwerres over claim by some IPOB promoters that Portharcourt belongs to the Igbos and they will "reclaim" it. Unfortunately, no promoter of the IPOB struggle has stated otherwise. For the record, the status of Portharcourt as the exclusive ownership of the Okrikans(PH South) and the Ikwerres is non-negotiable. Specifically, not a single inch of Okrika and other Ijaw land, whether in PH or anywhere else will be surrendered to anyone under any guise.

I weep for Niger deltans.
I really weep for the present generation of niger deltans. Their fathers like Clark, Saro Wiwa, Spiff and co could be forgiven for first time mistake but these present generation learnt absolutely nothing from their fathers.

After the announcement of the result of March 28 Presidential election, I recall vividly how some of us brought about the idea of a collective unity of interest and purpose between the South-South and South East geopolitical zones within the Nigeria State. I remember calling for a restructured Nigeria that will promote the interests of all citizens irrespective of ethnic group. I also remember saying that in absence of that, a referendum be held among citizens to determine whether the people of the South South and South East prefer the present Nigeria structure that favours no one over a separate sovereign State, the Lower Niger Congress/Federation that will favor citizens of the region, and also define the right, interest and terms that is acceptable to all ethnic nationalities that make up the 'federation'. I remember maintaining that this struggle should not be seen as confrontation with other groups and regions but must be confined in the most legitimate manner. It should be one that promote the legitimate interest of the SSSE and not one that set the SS/SE against other regions. This remains my position!

Let me state that the struggle for a better Nigeria that promotes good governance, equity and fairness irrespective of ethnic, religious and political affiliation remains my primary objective. The LNF is meant to be an alternative where the hope for restructured Nigeria diminishes. Though some of my brothers either prefer a united Niger Delta Republic or an exclusive indivisible Nigeria. That however, will be determined by a referendum should there be any. I, shall however align myself with the position of my people.

The IPOB Struggle Not Our Interest
The Mr Kanu-led IPOB struggle for an independent Biafra is not in conforminity with legitimate struggle for TWO basic reasons:

1. It promotes hate and violence against the State, other ethnic groups and also against members of Igbo ethnic nationality that does not share the Biafran ideology as preached by Kanu and his IPOB crew. Violence was never part of the UN charter on self-determination

2. The ethnic Nationalities in the Niger-Delta are yet to enter into any agreement with anybody as regard the composition, structure or otherwise of the IPOB proposed country. We are already facing a challenge in Nigeria where our forebearers in their wisdom failed to define terms of our unity as a country. In fact, we are working on correcting these anomalies legitimately.

In addition to the above, I find it disrespectful and insulting on the sensibilities of the Ijaws(Okrikans) and the Ikwerres over claim by some IPOB promoters that Portharcourt belongs to the Igbos and they will "reclaim" it. Unfortunately, no promoter of the IPOB struggle has stated otherwise. For the record, the status of Portharcourt as the exclusive ownership of the Okrikans(PH South) and the Ikwerres is non-negotiable. Specifically, not a single inch of Okrika and other Ijaw land, whether in PH or anywhere else will be surrendered to anyone under any guise.

I recognise and respect the right of everyone to self-determination but I have to state that the Kanu-led IPOB ideology is not what my people desire. I also respect the right of our Igbo brothers to their own interest but I disagree with call for violence as propagated by members of IPOB.


I remain committed to the interest of the Ijaw nation, the Niger-Delta region and also that of every good citizens of the Nigeria State whether Igbo, Yoruba, Berom, Fulani, Igala, Idoma etc.


May God Lead Us Right and Bless Nigeria

Na so SABOTAGE dey start...dat was how our fathers thought this guys were on our side,only to have them chicken out to go after our properties...one would have expected the other saboteur that was elected UNN SUG president and hung as a common criminal by Abacha to enligten his folks,but no. Greed and envy clouded his sense of reasoning until it was too late...one attribute of the Igbos that is worthy of emulation by other ethnic groups is our sense of "LOYALTY".when we give our words to support or stand by an individual or an idea,we would do so,come hell or high water;even at the risk of great personal loss,WE WOULD STAND BY YOU, till the very end.These neighbours of ours,we treat them with love and kindness,defending their cause and supporting them at every turn.But,when the opportunity comes for them to return the favours,they hesitate. Next thing you know,they break rank and take sides with our enemies.for this very reason and others too numerous to mention,i was not outspoken in my support for jonathan,cos i know for a certain,they would never return the loyalty...today,we are taking all the bashing and vitriol because of jonathan.i keep telling people this;whenever nigeria breaks up,i want an igbo only country...cos,i would not want us to start encountering the same problems that have bedevilled nigeria.

@HopeAtHand and Goodboiy like u told you guys earlier, my position on this subject should be very clear by now. I hope I won't be drawn into unnecessary controversy.

they will continue to be niger-delta and be refereed as
minority group and some are foolishly enjoying it, but not until
they will have no where to stand, they will live in an island....
But only a referendum will solve all that because i know that at least 73% identifies with Biafra

[s] The OP has always been a clown who doesn't know what he wants..He is like a mercenary whose only interested in monetary gain. So your position doesn't change anything because we've said several times that Biafra is only Igbo speaking areas. You can stuck to your 'one Nigeria', we don't fvcking care! [/s]

simplycarro:


You are not going to be popular with this your stand on this issue. They have masked their real intention with the fact that majority of SS and SE now see GEJ and PDP loss at Federal level as personal loss to these two regions. They have now capitalized on these and cunningly want to align the SS to their eternal desire to exit the Nigerian federation.
Remove this GEJ and PDP issues out of this love-affair and you will see the relationship fall flat.

With the present day Nigeria and the way things are, wud yu say yu are a majority?? Ponder over that.
Hw could yu peeps keep claiming things that are not yours?? Aren't yu guys tired of doing the same thing over and over and wanting to get a different result??

Your fraud will not work.

Rose2014:
Hypocrisy & mischief is when u read Barca's post n see that he desires a restructured Nigeria and you're silent on that. Of course who cares about his desire? Who doesn't know that a restructured Nigeria will put Biafra to rest?

Rather you're busy cheering the part that he's not in support of Biafra
